Have you consodered direct Signal Messaging support or at least standard sms sending support, so of someone has signal setup he can benefit from encrypted messaging Services?

Seva-coder commented 5 years ago

No, haven't thought about it yet

mr-gosh commented 5 years ago

Indeed the app doesn't work if a uswr uses signal, cause it doesn't get aware of the recieved sms - so it is possibly necessary to integrate signal support or a different protocoll for users of alternative sms recievers....

I am using signal and finder (with unencrypted sms) works fine for me. This may be a bug occuring unique to you currently. What android version, manufacturer, signal version, etc. do you have?

Atrate commented 4 years ago

Can confirm the same, the default SMS app (Signal, Silence, whatever) does not impact the app's functionality.

It might be interesting to investigate SMS end-to-end encryption via Silence's algorythm.

90% of messaging apps have a nice "Reply" button in their notifications - this could be implemented like this:

Select apps from which to "try to respond" - Signal, Telegram, Messenger, etc
If notification includes "request string", try to find a "Reply button" in notification and use it
If not, send notification that this app is incompatilble (for testing)
